U+C635 "옵" Hangul Syllable Ob Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
옵
U+C635 "옵" Hangul Syllable Ob is a precomposed syllable in the modern Korean Hangul writing system, representing the phonetic value "ob." It is formed by combining the initial consonant ㅇ (a placeholder or silent onset), the vowel ㅗ (o), and the final consonant ㅂ (b), and it commonly appears in Korean words such as the verb stem in "좋아하다" (to like) when conjugated or in the adverb "옵서서" (saying "please come" in a polite, archaic form). As part of the Hangul Syllables block in Unicode, this character allows for efficient text processing by encoding the entire syllable as a single code point rather than requiring separate composition of its individual Hangul jamo components.
